Any ideas how one might display Treo 700wx browser on the MFD??? Or ideas on how to display a touchscreen internet browser on the MFD? Mike
I think you're out of luck here. The MFD has no standard video input, and the Treo has no video output. You can't display the Treo's video anywhere else either.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Martin Gundel @ Jan 7 2007, 10:41 AM) [snapback]372108[/snapback]</div> That won't quite do the job. It appears that the PDAReach program (which runs on Windows) "pulls out" the screen contents from the PDA. It does not appear to be a program that "pushes" the screen from the PDA to the computer. So, without a Windows computer, that ain't gonna work. But it was still more than I thought was possible.
THanks for the helpful replies. I suppose I could use the Treo to access the internet then via http://www.junefabrics.com/pdanet/index.php running on a Windows XP PC output the video via Lockpick to the MFD. But with the Lockpic and a dedicated PC the price tag approaches $1,000 and I would still need access to a keyboard/mouse while I'm driving...ANy other thoughts?

The 700wx uses a square 240x240 pixel screen, blowing this up on a 7? inch rectangular screen, if it were possible, would look horrible anyway. I think the best solution for using a browser with the MFD would be to try to connect a mac mini then connect the mac mini to the Treo to provide wireless data access.
OK, so you use the Treo as a type of modem. But when y'all start surfing the web, please put a huge flashing light atop the car so the rest of us can pull to the side of the road and stay clear.
